Psalms 106:11

9 He rebuked the Red Sea, and it dried up; He led them through the depths as through a desert.

10 He saved them from the hand that hated them; He redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.

The waters covered their foes; not one of them remained.

12 Then they believed His promises and sang His praise.

13 Yet they soon forgot His works and failed to wait for His counsel.

Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
